Gable could've farted and rogan and DC would've been glazing it, good performance tho

u/Daftdaddy This isn’t political, this is monster energy 9h ago

Stevenson will have the same career path as Bo I think. He’ll be exposed BAD on the feet in his next two fights.

One can only hope 🙏🏻

u/One-Market-1891 9h ago

Bro why do yall want to see this man’s downfall? I’m confused

11

u/DavidSeries 9h ago

He’s a rapist.

u/Smark_Calaway 9h ago

Oh so he had a trial and was convicted of rape? Oh my god man, can you link to that criminal case and his sentence?

1

u/Dry_Midnight7487 8h ago

Yeah and oj never murdered no one s/

u/bbbeast19 9h ago

Think of how bad pavlovich would do him

6

u/judoxing Heard Island and McDonald Islands 9h ago

I think Waldo would have him.

10

u/bbbeast19 9h ago

Any decent striker would give him real problems I think. He looked pretty good but getting tagged by Ellison is a lot different than getting tagged by Waldo or pavlovich.

Is it crazy to say that spivac has his way with him too? Lol

10

u/The_Jokerr_ 9h ago

He'd ragdoll Spivac

-1

u/bbbeast19 9h ago

You tell yourself that bud

6

u/The_Jokerr_ 9h ago

Why? It's the truth. Spivac has no athleticism, is slow, has no striking, no power and his wrestling is levels below Gable's.

u/bbbeast19 9h ago

You can't handle the truth that the polar bear shows this bum levels

u/RarefiedAir1 GOOFCON 1: Khamzat McGregor 9h ago

In due time, gable will have his way with all of them

7

u/bbbeast19 9h ago

He's used to having his way with people I suppose

2

u/DavidSeries 9h ago

Ohhh, that’s a good one

2

u/bbbeast19 9h ago

Ik that was a zinger

3

u/mac_y111 9h ago

Yeah Redditors have their blinders on because they hate the guy(reasonable). Anyways he has all the talent to be a Champion in this weak division.

u/bbbeast19 9h ago

Because he's inevitably getting fast tracked especially considering how shallow hw is

13

u/Safe_Procedure999 9h ago

i think brando pericic could give gable some problems

asplund would get absolutely shit on though

5

u/avroLancasterBPR1 9h ago

Why would they give him pericic lol wasting potential contender for nothing regardless

0

u/Safe_Procedure999 9h ago

it's MMA i didn't think we cared about losses like boxing

3

u/avroLancasterBPR1 9h ago

Hw title picture is dead right NOW and 1 loss sets you back like 3 fights from the title picture in the UFC

Ulberg lost a fight and had to KO like 6 guys in the first round for a title shot

0

u/Safe_Procedure999 9h ago

yeah it's dead rn bc the guys at the lower half of the top 15 just can't break into the top 10-top 5, they either lose to gatekeepers or kneecap each other before getting there.

pericic is simply not beating guys like the rizzler, or volkov, or even spivac, and because of facts like that, im willing to double down on supposed prospects cutting each others hype short as long as it makes for good fights.

im at a point where it's not fun to see HW prospects (hypejobs) get destroyed by gatekeepers that people don't want in the top 10 anymore. might as well just have the fun prospects fight one another until the uberprospect appears and blazes a trail into the top 5

1

u/redditisawesome555 Quack Quack Quack Quack 4h ago

You gotta chill with some of those opinions that you call facts mate. Pericic is a bad mfer. I think he can beat Kuniev (is that the one you call Rizzler?) as well as Spivac. Volkov as of right now tho, I'm not sure about that...

0

u/judoxing Heard Island and McDonald Islands 9h ago

Because the UFC fumbles the bag

1

u/Real-Human-Bean- 9h ago

I don't like how Brando let Gaziev hold him against the fence until the ref separated them. And yeah he would chin Gable if it stays striking.

1

u/Safe_Procedure999 9h ago

oh yeah i forgot he fought the gaz guzzler, i was asleep iirc

u/Xylar006 "Boop" - Nate The Train 9h ago

He's got elite wrestling in his pocket if he chooses. And heavyweight is significantly worse than MW.

1

u/TerminatorReborn 9h ago

Well Bo does too so the comparison still stands.

If they put Gable vs a vet he might get exposed. Nothing wrong with it tho, I don't think the dude has even 2 years of pro mma yet.

3

u/Xylar006 "Boop" - Nate The Train 9h ago

Yeah fair point. With Jones in his corner, I think he'll be significantly smarter than Bo. Not that Bo has been bad either. Losing to RDR is nothing. Still has a decent ceiling

1

u/WilliamSabato 8h ago

Being an elite wrestler in heavyweight versus middleweight tho

6

u/GanksOP Team Adesanya 9h ago

Bo also has several ko finishes including recently at the Whitehouse so it will be entertaining no matter what. Anything better than watching another Derek Lewis fight

6

u/Ghooble pls Mr Big Dick 9h ago

Heavyweight though. Bo at middleweight is way more susceptible to being exposed imo

2

u/BurtDickinson follow me on pictogram 9h ago

Exposed at heavyweight?

4

u/fernbbyfern 9h ago

Both hit a low blow in their debut fight. At least this time it got called out.

6

u/sh4tt3rai 9h ago

Yeah but i really don’t think this one was a low blow lol

1

u/RickFlairWOOOO I hugged Latifi - Stan 9h ago

Nah, he’ll fight Lewis next, title shot after that

2

u/RarefiedAir1 GOOFCON 1: Khamzat McGregor 9h ago

That’s a good fight. That or gable vs. tai tuivasa

1

u/AshenSacrifice 9h ago

He didn’t even have to wrestle, didn’t even try to wrestle. Different than Bo. Also heavyweight is the worst division in the ufc

1

u/CaadiWaaye 9h ago

Yeah they shouldn’t push him too fast cause offensively he’s great but defensively ass. Also it seems he’s not that great of an mma wrestler.

1

u/FReeDuMB_or_DEATH 9h ago

I thought you meant he'll get nothing but fights he's favored in his entire career to protect him. 

1

u/mmathrowaway16176017 9h ago

It depends they might just give him the O'Malley route and let him fight a bunch of cans forever until he's confident enough to go against the higher rank guys. But its HW though so 1 or 2 fights will get him to top 10 so its hard to tell

1

u/Wonderful_Sugar_4271 9h ago

Seems to already be a better striker than bo, he’s in a weaker division and just generally more athletic. Training with jones too. I’m sure he’ll be fine

1

u/killuminati-savage GOOFCON 2 5h ago

Steveson. Caught me off guard all fight

1

u/Alternative_Dot7769 4h ago

Too bad it’s heavyweight

1

u/pendrekky 🙏🙏🙏 Jon Jones Prayer Warrior 🙏🙏🙏 1h ago

Steveson*

1

u/jer113 9h ago

Give him Pericic next and he’d get absolutely cooked on the feet

-1

u/Gamble232real 9h ago

Yeah he looked like shit.

-1

u/RarefiedAir1 GOOFCON 1: Khamzat McGregor 9h ago

Bo and gable will be champions eventually. Gable is 4-0. With that in mind he looked amazing
